His unique system clearly shown November 14, 2008
Mr. D. J. Edwards
The book begins with a mini autobiography section in which Fedor tells us his background and how he came to become one of the greatest fighters in history. Its interesting but pretty brief and it would have been nice to have learnt a bit more about his background, still, thats not really what this books about and it should be treated as a bonus.
The purpose of this book is to teach the techniques and strategies that Fedor has used to beat some of the best fighters in the world and in this it succeeds very well indeed. Each section (for example, 'striking combinations') starts with a very useful introduction which explains the strategy in employing the move shown. Each move or series of moves is shown from at least two, and often three, angles and this makes it easy to see exactly what is happening.
Fedor's unique style constantly shines through, from his punches to his submissions everything has his personal stamp on it. For example, he shows an armbar from the mount in which you put the submission on while staying in the mount, something I've never seen or heard of! His punching style is also different to any kickboxing or boxing instructional out there, he twists straight punches so that they land at a 45 degree angle and throws his hooks with his hand turned far more than is usual so that the two large knuckles connect!
Obviously his style works, he has 29 wins, no losses and in his last fight beat a former UFC heavyweight champion in 36 seconds!
This book is as good as BJ Penn's excellent volume, if you are interested in MMA training it is a must buy.
